I purchased the rack w/o the optional risers. Installation was straight forward, especially after watching the short video on the item page. Kuryakyn does make a extremely nice looking product. My only issue was that the installation instructions provided with the unit were poorly written. I have found this to be normal with Kuryakyn and how they typically write their instructions (poorly at best). The instructions are the reason I gave only 4 stars. One other note is that the additional weight of this luggage rack will probably require you to place some opening pressure on your trunk lid due to the additional weight. Your 'automatic' trunk release will probably no longer leave the trunk in an open position if you release it prior to getting to the bike. As a whole, I am glad I bought this accessory. It does make a distinctive addition to the bike. |
| After getting used to how it works it really is helping you to load a SD card with your favorite music. I do how ever have some concerns the biggest being that at least in my player the J&M model 1 type B, the program sets the folders to root=CD 1 and the folders CD02, CD03 and so on, but the player do not like that so I have to change the names to CD2, CD3 and so on. This is irritating and brings the rating down. |
| As everyone else said, instructions that came in the box were just a little vague. Hitch installed ok EXCEPT putting the center plastic license plate cover back on does not fit flush. The clearances are so tight behind cover to the lower bolt heads that the cover sticks out a little. Better design of the H bar could have remedied this. Others removed washers and/or installed different bolts with smaller head, ground plastic. Shouldn't have to resort to this. Hitch H bar needs a re-design for a little more clearance. |
| Thank you WingStuff...I was the 2 nd grand prize winner at the GWRRA convention in Pueblo, Colo and won these balancers. I appreciate it and will report back regarding how they work...have a 6000 mile trip planned in a week so the test is on.... |
| Great bag, used it on a two day trip and had room to spare. Nice to grab and go at the motel. The Velcro is long but that is easy to modify, better long than short. Rained one whole day of the ride and things were dry with the cover on. |
| works as described, although everyone is claiming they drilled a 7/8", I tried that and it was too small. The instructions called for a 1-1/8" and that's what it turned out to be for me. Used plastic glue to secure, plugged it in and was good to go. :) |

This WAS my 2nd set in 3 years. With both sets, my right deflector has snapped in half while riding at less than 55. I have no idea why they broke, but each time, I got off the bike and the right one was missing the top half. Each set was almost 2 years old so maybe simple fatigue (I leave them on year `round). BUT, I like these, and am ordering another set. |
| Yes,this item is functional and beautiful. |
| Good quality t-shirt for the price. When you get over 50 miles to the gallon, the statement is true! |
| Installed this on my Honda Valkyrie. It defintely cleaned up the wiring connections and saved my battery. It is also great due to its small size and can be mounted just about anywhere. |
| I installed these on my Honda Valkyrie after hearing so much about them. They sure improved the ride from having lead weights. These are a must! |
| Not going to loose any pins now, LoL |
